Central Park Zoo

I’ve been coming to this zoo since I was a child. Now I got to bring my son. The zoo is small so you can basically see everything in about an hour. The epicenter is the Sealions pool in the center of zoo. The penguin house, is lots of fun too. Also there is a bitters house , monkeys a petting zoo. Just a perfect zoo for little kids.

Exactly what we expected. Small zoo but it works great with our planned itinerary. Animals looked healthy and Zoo is well maintained. Very nice Zoo for being in the middle of the cities. Lots of options for snacks and drinks.
Had a great time.

Great experience for the kids. A few interactive stations with zoo staff to educate on animals. Would just recommend more signage, we were not clear where to go and what animals were there. Also the kids zoo, we didn't find out that there were specific feeding times for the petting zoo until after we paid. Outside of that, not much interaction for the kids except leaning on the wall and hoping the animals come near enough to pet.

I love Zoos. No matter the size or location, but the fact that this Zoo is in the middle of Central Park makes it that much cooler to me! It'll maybe take you an hour to get through which is nice for a quick trip! The Zoo itself is super clean! We enjoyed our time the most in the Tropics exhibit.

What a beautiful day to enjoy a nice walk at the Central Park Zoo! We purchased our tickets quite fast and we didn’t wait to get in at all while there were no lines. We visited on a weekday though. The place was very clear and all employees were nice and knowledgeable. We spent an hour walking around and we saw snow monkeys, leopards, bears, penguins and a lot of other beautiful animals. It’s the right place to take your family and see something different in the heart of Manhattan. Kids will love this place. The park is not that big.
